Sundays...

Today has been the snoozy, cozy Sunday we have all been needing. Here are the boys, snuggled into my bed with the Ipod which THEY SHARED HAPPILY. It is so easy to catch a moment in blogland and not explain how rare that moment may be. This photos of two boys peacefully talking about a game is actually a hen's tooth.

This photo however, is not. Hugo has lost his two front teeth and instead of being adorable, he keeps hissing and jumping out from things like a juvenile vampire.... There hasn't been a sweet smile in front of the camera since they fell out. Um, by the way, we don't let him watch vampire movies - it's just something that comes naturally to all children - I think - or hope. It's normal right?

When I haven't been spying on my boys (they have been very interesting today - they even packed bags and headed out on the farm for a couple of hours), I have been doing the staring at fabric thing. You know how sometimes if you stare enough, the puzzle pieces start coming together. I love Liberty and Nani Iro very much. They make a very nice family.

Wahoo - I have just cracked the recipe for really good gluten-free crackers (by accident - let's just say that there was something fundamentally wrong with the bread dough I was trying to make) and I will post the recipe this week. Hugo is thrilled - sometimes rice crackers aren't all they are cracked up to be...

Just so you know, the moments when your boys live in harmony get longer as they get older (well I found they did)My boys are all grown up now and are actually very good mates! there's hope even when they spend most of the time ripping each other limb from limb LOL!Enjoy the peace.

About Me

I am an Australian living in New Zealand with my husband Jonno and children Archie and Hugo on a harbourside dairy farm. My great aunt and uncle taught me to embroider when I was eight and I have been obsessed with fabric and thread ever since. I now crochet, knit, paint, sew, print fabric, embroider, write and all sorts of other things that raises seratonin. I am also lucky enough to design projects for Simply Crochet UK . Thanks for stopping by!
